I would have stayed despite the high probability of severe indigestion later unrelated to food.
We enjoy Subway, we go there frequently.

Suddenly I'm hungry.
Since Subways and Edward Jones franchises seem to be on every corner, I'm wondering if joint stores would have some potential. Bad food and bad investment advice on the same menu. How about an index annuity with your choice of cheese.

Many here sound Hangry!
I go to Subway a couple times a month, I like their new menu but it is staggeringly expensive. Even with a few bucks off through the app most footlongs are about $13-$16 depending on what you get. Add another $4 if you get a meal.
I was gonna ask: Can I get cheese with that?

Only if they bring back Jared Fogle as spokesperson.

I think McDonald’s is far better. The food tastes better, and is prepared better.
I used to eat at Subway a couple times a week. It was on base, and I even knew the managers name because I was there so often and at that time, at that franchise, it was pretty good.
The last several times have been to a subway have been a colossal disappointment. Overpriced, poor taste, lack of freshness. On the toppings, stale bread. Ugh.
Won’t go back.
It's been the McDonalds of sandwiches for decades.

Just back from Subway with my wife.
Great food but my ego took a hit no cute woman called me handsome
Wife just back from Denver on United.
Great trip she said.

When they were reasonably priced, they weren't too bad.
But it's just so expensive .... Not worth it.

About 30 years ago, my brother and I were brainstorming about the future. I had just been laid off from my airline job. We made a couple of calls to inquire about a Steak n Shake franchise. I don't recall the buy in amount, but you also had to have proof of $500k of liquid assets. That dealed us out of the game. I wonder if that's still the policy.
I just know no matter what that is a bottom starting number no matter what for any food franchise
Wife I explored some options
My takeaway is the few successful good food places have my full admiration. Again you still might not be making money!
Togo's used to be the go-to, but they've been going downhill for years. At least the ones around my area.
I no longer go to subway because of this:
If I want a sandwich, it's either Mr. Pickles (when they're open), or I'll drive 30 miles to Erik's Deli.

I've been to cousin's once in Milwaukee; recommended by a coworker for lunch as we don't have any in IL. It wasn't too bad, reminded me of Jimmy John's.
